At the data level, DCAT [1] already defines a property http://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#accessURL <http://www.w3.org/ns/dcat#accessURL> which points to “a landing page, feed, SPARQL endpoint or any other type of resource that gives access to the distribution of the dataset.”

Of course, the question will remain if no one uses this property at least at dataset/data catalog level.
